It's a very fun, easy to use app. Video quality is usually great. But it has some real hiccups. If you get a phone call while making a video, that can completely derail your video. Also, for some reason, it only uses the native phone mic, not my bluetooth mic. which makes it hard to send videos with good audio quality.

Thanks so much for the kind words and thoughtful feedback. As for the phone call interruption, there’s actually a setting you can change to help with that—feel free to REACH OUT TO US DIRECTLY AND WE’LL WALK YOU THROUGH IT. We're also actively looking into improving Bluetooth mic support for better audio quality. support@marcopolo.me

The audio doesn't work for me. It used to work and then just stopped. I was told to update the app and my phone. after updating my phone it worked for one day, but only after my friend also updated her app. Then it just stopped working again. I can hear her, but neither of us can hear anything I record, and I've checked all settings and permissions. The app is broken

I did not expect to like and use this app as much as I have! It has been instrumental to keep up with real relationships over a long distance! I am considering upgrading to one of the membership tiers because I have use for the additional functionality but the free base version is very good! I have been using it for over 2 years! I highly recommend it!
